Investing - Theory, News & General • Question on margin interest in itemized deduction

$

0
As an example, margin interest = $100,000, short-term capital gains = $120,000. So $20,000 short-term capital gains taxed as ordinary income, right?

Continue with the example, single filer Schedule A itemized deductions, property tax = $10,000, mortgage interest = $6,000. So is the total itemized deduction = $100,000 + $10,000 + $6,000 = $116,000? And the tax rate is based on AGI - itemized deduction?

Can this be right or am I missing something?

Thanks.
